Afghanistan Vs South Africa Head to Head
Both the countries are facing each other for the first time in international cricket
South Africa beat Afghanistan by 9 wickets
After defeats to England, Bangladesh and India, and a washout against West Indies, this was a must-win game for four-time semifinalist South Africa.
South Africa finally arrived to the party as they picked up their first victory of the 2019 World Cup, beating Afghanistan by nine wickets (DLS) in a rain-affected match at the Sophia Gardens in Cardiff on Saturday
Imran Tahir (4 for 29), Chris Morris (3 for 13) and Andile Phehlukwayo (2 for 18) shared nine wickets between them as Proteas bowled Afghanistan out for just 125 runs in an encounter that was reduced to 48 overs per side. In reply, Quinton de Kock (68) and Hashim Amla (41*) formed a solid opening partnership and helped South Africa chase down the total in 28.4 overs.
Afghanistan has lost all four matches and remains last in the 10-team standings.
Afghanistan will next play England on Tuesday, while South Africa's next match is against New Zealand on Wednesday June 19,2019
